Is there a mandatory process for using the data? No, there is no mandatory process. How can I interpret the fixing files for Equities, FX, & Cryptocurrency? EQUITIES: ESF Calculation On expiration days for End-of-Month (EOM) and Weekly options on standard and E-mini S&P 500 futures, CME calculates a special fixing price based on the weighted average trading price of the nearest expiring month for the E-mini S&P 500 futures in the last 30 seconds (2:59:30 - 3:00:00 p.m.) of trading before the 3:00 p.m. (Chicago Time) options expiration. This calculation always uses the nearest contract until it is no longer available for trade. EEF Calculation The EEF is a fixing price that is based on a volume weighted average price of the nearest expiry for the E-mini S&P 500 futures in the 30 seconds preceding 4:30 PM London Time (4:29:30-4:30:00 PM). This calculation always uses the nearest contract until it is no longer available for trade. EJF Calculation The EJF is a fixing price that is based on a volume weighted average price of the nearest expiry for the E-mini S&P 500 futures in the 30 seconds preceding 3:00 PM Tokyo Time (2:59:30-3:00:00 PM). This calculation always uses the nearest contract until it is no longer available for trade. NQF Calculation On expiration days for Weekly options on standard and E-mini NASDAQ-100 futures, CME calculates a special fixing price based on the weighted average trading price of E-mini NASDAQ-100 futures in the last 30 seconds (2:59:30 - 3:00:00 p.m.) of trading before the 3:00 p.m. (Chicago Time) options expiration.
